District 798

Every time I met an American visiting Beijing, they'd ask me if I had been to District 798. 


  
What had once been part of a five year socialist-industrial unification plan, is now the oldest and biggest modern art zone where avante garde artists  have amazing studios and galleries.  



798 is in an area of  fifty year old decommissioned military factory buildings with East German and Soviet architectural style.  



I'm so glad that love wins!
